The Underground Banking Systems and their Impact on Control of Money Laundering: With Special Reference to Islamic Banking

Introduction of Research Paper

The concept of Islamic banking is gaining momentum nowadays. It has been reported that the establishment of Islamic banks and financial institutions has come as a result of the new challenges posed by the wave of globalisation which has swept all fields of life worldwide. Despite this rapid growth and expansion of Islamic banking, there are many hurdles and dangers which could be fatal to their operations. In this paper only one danger will be examined - money laundering, which has been characterized as the most serious danger threatening not only the economies of all countries but also their tranquility and political stability...............

UNIT ROOT TEST

Stationarity and Unit Root Testing l   The stationarity or otherwise of a series can strongly influence its behaviour and properties - e.g. persistence of shocks will be infinite for nonstationary series l   Spurious regressions. If two variables are trending over time, a regression of one on the other could have a high R 2 even if the two are totally unrelated l   If the variables in the regression model are not stationary, then it can be proved that the standard assumptions for asymptotic analysis will not be valid. In other words, the usual “ t -ratios” will not follow a t -distribution, so we cannot validly undertake hypothesis tests about the regression parameters. Stationary and Non-stationary Time Series Stationary Time Series l   A series is said to be stationary if the mean and autocovariances of the series do not depend on time. (A) Strictly Stationary : n   For a strictly stationary time series the distribution of   y(t) is independent of t .   Thus it is not just
